Relaxing Girls Weekend

My friends and I stayed here to enjoy some time away and celebrate a bachelorette party. We loved our stay at this adorable house. The tiki bar was a nice surprise and the highlight of our stay! We were able to walk to downtown for drinks in the morning and evening. Just know the hot tub mentioned is in one of the bathrooms not outside, but suggest they get one as it has the perfect setting for one and should get a hammock enjoy perfect fall days. We had a great time!

Amazing Best Friends Getaway

This was the cutest, coziest cottage! It was perfect for the 4 of us. We used the grill and deck one night and the firepit another night. Very relaxing and convenient walking distance to all the cool places on Cody Road. We would definitely stay there again.

Quaint and comfy!

Absolutely loved this historic cottage. Oozing with charm! Kathryn has created such an inviting get-away. We were in town for a family Christmas and needed a few extra beds and a quiet space for a break from the exuberance of 10 grandkids. Perfect peacefulness to be found at this cottage. Just a heads-up to any wanting to stay here; there are several small steps throughout the cottage in addition to the spiral staircase, all very well marked and lit, but still a word of caution for some. We surely hope to be back, and the teenage granddaughters hope to join us next time!

Great Place in a cozy the cozy town of LeClaire

Absolutely loved the place. The pictures are spot on. It's super cozy and charming yet much bigger than you would think. All the rooms are decent sized and well decorated. Also, a great location only a short walk from all the restaurants and shopping. We will definitely add to our list of must go again.

Cottage in LeClaire, IA

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Everything was pretty much as shown in the photos online. The river views were great. There was a lot of train traffic along the river but it was really not an issue for us. There were several nice decks and outdoor seating options, however, the decks and patio furniture had not been cleaned in quite awhile. We did enjoy sitting in the little screened porch on the second floor and that was very clean. Overall, a nice stay.

It immediately made me feel welcomed as if I was coming home. Very comfortable, with multiple outdoor settings for viewing the river. The owner was very quick to respond to my questions.

Birthday getaway

We always try to get away for a day or two around our birthdays. This was an absolutely adorable home with a great view. Although being on the river I think next time we will do it for my birthday so weather is warmer. The house is exactly as listed. Easy check in, fabulous spiral staircase, jetted tub comfy bed. The local restaurants are great, unfortunately the local grocery store is not. This place was really great we hope to come back soon.
